That’s a wrap on #EVS26. What a week! ⚡ This year’s show left us more energized than ever about where computer vision and physical AI are heading. We spent the week talking with OEMs, system integrators, silicon vendors, startups, and teams deploying real products on NVIDIA Jetson, NXP Semiconductors i.MX, Renesas Electronics, Synaptics Incorporated, and more — and one thing became very clear: Teams are deep into production reality now. They’re not experimenting with embedded Linux for the first time — they’re living with it at scale. Maintaining Yocto-based systems. Managing BSPs. Shipping updates across real fleets. And feeling the cost of that complexity every day. 🥑 That’s why the response to Avocado OS resonated so strongly. → Declarative system configuration instead of hand-rolled BitBake complexity → Image assembly in minutes instead of massive rebuild cycles → Application iteration on real hardware without rebuilding the entire OS → Production-grade security and OTA architecture from day one → A workflow that lets application teams move without every engineer becoming a Yocto expert Teams don’t want to throw away their Yocto investment. They want a better layer above it. That theme came up over and over again throughout the week. Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth, joined conversations, and attended sessions from Justin Schneck and Amir Sherman. The engagement and technical depth of the discussions this week were incredible. We’re also grateful to spend time with so many great partners and teams across the ecosystem, including Advantech, NVIDIA, GRINN, SolidRun, Synaptics Incorporated, Roboflow and many others helping push embedded AI forward. The future of physical AI is being built right now and it’s increasingly moving from prototype to production. Excited for what’s ahead. 🥑 #EVS26 #ComputerVision #EdgeAI #PhysicalAI #EmbeddedLinux #AvocadoOS
